When we met I knew You're so much more than a one night stand I knew I'd want to hold your hand I wish I had the guts to say something Cause I know you don't see How perfect you are to me.   With you, I want to lie under the sky Wrapped in your arms I want to make wishes on shooting stars. But I'm scared I don't know the real you. And I'm scared you'd run from the real me. What happens when you realize I'm crazy. What happens if you find out I think about you every day? What happens if you walk away? I want to say all this to you... But I know I'm going to erase this And pretend I never wrote it. I'll tell myself to keep it in, To guard my heart Because it will never start. But what would happen if I sent this to you now?... I wish I had the guts to find out.

The Message I'll Never Send
When we met I knew You're so much more than a one night stand I knew I'd want to hold your hand I wish I had the guts to say something Cause I know you don't see How perfect you are to me.   With you, I want to lie under the sky Wrapped in your arms I want to make wishes on shooting stars. But I'm scared I don't know the real you. And I'm scared you'd run from the real me. What happens when you realize I'm crazy. What happens if you find out I think about you every day? What happens if you walk away? I want to say all this to you... But I know I'm going to erase this And pretend I never wrote it. I'll tell myself to keep it in, To guard my heart Because it will never start. But what would happen if I sent this to you now?... I wish I had the guts to find out.
It started as a message... But it'll stay here alone...
